INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your new CORSAIR HX Series ATX Power Supply!
CORSAIR HX Series fully modular power supplies deliver reliable 80 PLUS Platinum efficient power to your
system combined with a high performance 140mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) fan.
SAFETY AND PROTECTION
> Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)
Over-voltage protection for the 12V, 5V, and 3.3V DC outputs is required to comply with the ATX specification.
OVP shuts down the PSU in the event that the DC outputs exceed a set level, determined by
the PSU manufacturer.
> Over-Current Protection (OCP)
The HX Series features OCP on the 3.3V, 5V, and 12V rails. OCP ensures that the output of the DC voltage rails
remains within safe operating limits.
> Over-Temperature Protection (OTP)
OTP ensures that the PSU will shut down when the internal temperature reaches a set point. This is usually as
a result of internal current overloading or a fan failure.
> Short-Circuit Protection (SCP)
A short-circuit is defined as any output impedance of less than 0.1 ohms. Amongst other things, SCP ensures
that the PSU shuts down should the 3.3V, 5V, and 12V rails short to any other rail, or to ground. It also ensures
that no damage should occur to the unit, or your PC's components in the event of a short.
